Based on your experience, I wouldn't even consider buying from them.
"OK to awful" isn't the range of quality I generally look for. Hell,
if the hook's going to break, I don't care if they only cost $.10
each. Shoot, Walt will tie one on for you for free, and you'll catch
just as many fish.
Well I live on the upper sac, so I fish all the time and flies are
expensive. Like I said, if I were to go steelhead fishing or something
I wouldnt use these flies. Plus, maybe I just got a bad batch which
could happen to Umpqua or whoever the highest quality flies are?
